Gas/electric bill

So, I pay £50 month electric and £25 for gas.

3 bed house, 2 kids, me and DH.

Is this reasonable?

Thanks for your help!

We pay about 80 for the two and we're in a 3 bed semi. But Mr Ranting is tres tight careful about how much we use. Everything is turned off when we're not using it and we double jumper in the winter. So about right I should think.

We pay £63 for both. Also live in 3 bed semi.

i used to pay about £40 a month for electric and £20-30(depending on time of year)for gas when i lived in a 3 bedroom house with 3 dc's,3 years ago.

i now pay £110 a month for electric in a 4 bed house with 5 dc and a dh.considering the only increase in consumtion is running an extra computer and doing about 3-4 more loads of washing a week i think thats pretty steep

We're currently paying about £80pm between them for 4 bed so possible.

sounds reasonable. we pay £40 for electric and £28 for gas - build up a credit in summer though and use it through winter
3 bed terrace
3 kids

We pay £34 a month for gas and £13 for electricity. We are in a 3 bed maisonette.

we pay £160 per month (gas & elec) in a 3 bed semi.

dh works away so usally it is only 2 dc and me. i dont like being to hot so heating is never on really. sure we must have a leak, either that or all the neighbours are rigged up to us!!!
